Remarks

SET( ) recognizes the four-character abbreviation for all Visual FoxPro SET keywords (with the exception of HELPFILTER, which can be abbreviated to five characters). For example, STAT and PRIN can be used for SET STATUS and SET PRINTER, respectively.

The SET( ) function is identical to SYS(2001).

SET("CENTURY", 3) passes a Calendar value of 2 (Gregorian (U.S.)) in a call to the Windows GetCalendarInfo( ) API.
